I was...

I got so much frustrated today at around 3 o clock that,I got up from my desk...roamed here and there for half an hour then went to canteen had coffee choclate pastry then sipped coffee..... came back to desk open mailbox, no new mails kewl.... now I should leave is what I decided. And so I was out of office at 5:20 pm. What else do you expect man!!

Once out of office I'm feeling really light weight!! ;-) Its office frustration I tell you ;-)

Today India defeated australia by 99 runs. Fine so now it would be 6-1 and not 7-0 as was expected for india ;-)

Hey my cute david shepherd is no more with us. I really loved him. Golu molu khadoos umpire!!!Infact when he used to open his mouth to shout NO , he appeared to me as humptie dumptie. May his soul rest in peace!!

Currently in love with this song...

My 200th post...

What else could be more beautiful then talking about love..

"Love is one force that makes you decide on the basis on things you can't explain or understand. But it teaches you to surrender control and let the higher power take over. Listen to your heart and not the head, even for a rational thing despite feeling completely weird."

Diwali Planning...

It's hot and humid here. I'm really surprised by the weather change.Earlier by Oct end we used to start using at least one sweater and now its fan/cooler running. I really get scared by the environment changes and what future has in store for us.

Finally, today was the last day of our DIWALI SAAF SAFAI! From tomorrow we are gonna work on "Mithai and other delicacies for diwali". I really dont understand, every year we follow the same routine, I mean we have diwali every year and each year we prepare and celebrate it with same enthusiasm and fun. This time of course it would be different as my little nephew would be celebrating his first diwali and so we are more excited.

Today, we went to ask ladder from one of our neighbours, when we were done with the job I said Thank you Uncle, and Uncle nodded his head saying--- arrey koi baat nahi beta! Two things that stuck me , one was Beta as I don't here this word very often now from anyone as stranger or oldie. Its always Madam. and another thing, I shouldn't have said Thank you, it sounds very formal. These words are just for "CLIENT" and not for us. I agree they are under "Manners and Etiquette's" but still they are FORMAL words.

Diwali and HouseCleaning...

One of the reason , I asked for early leave is that I could be a helping hand to my parents in Diwali's Special cleaning. I don't know, but stillI couldnt understand, why we stick to "Diwali Cleaning"? I mean... that reason that Lakshmi would come to your house if its clean and dirt free isnt very convincing. Whatever... I have no choice but to stick to it.



So, this time it was decided that we wont be having whitewash, as just last year we had and it was appearing neat and clean. The only thing we need to manage is clean all dirt and dust with a broom. So as I m here there is no fear, I thought of starting it this morning.



As I started with one of the rooms and climbed on one of the shelve to clean ceiling and fan, I met one of my homemate- Home lizard... Ofcourse I didnt screamed, but with shoooo and some more sounds she was off my way, and again started banging ceiling with my broom , now as I cleared some trunk there was another one... eeeehhhh... not one but two... this time I screamed as the shelve is just two feet wide and it hardly had any space for me to escape. After some more hissing...even she left. But no... after about two minutes there was another one, and then there was a BIG SOUND.Listening to the sound, my family members rushed to see what happened, but yes I was safe and sound ;-). The sound was not mine, but actually I banged a big box which had that lizard crawling over it. Hahahahaa... I was laughing sitting on that two feet wide shelve.

Ahhh... Today I got tired, I used to do double work than this earlier as well, but today I could feel body pain. Is it related to old age. Uddi baba.... I m getting old... but I'm toh still unmarried. Should I seriously think of marriage...atleast I could get a hubby to do all this cleaning ;-)

Hahahahhaa... not a good reason to get marrried isnt?

Holiday Home!!

I'm on two weeks vacation for diwali, yes diwali is on 18th but I landed my home today itself. People did gave me a surprised look when I say that, as many of them dont get such a long vacation.

Whatever, I m enjoying it so dont care about others :)

I have actually asked for 1.5 weeks of leave, which is approved another .5 is either sick leave or some urgent work at home or my train got delayed by 36 hrs (well that dosent sounds very genuine ;)) but I m figuring out a good excuse, dont know what I'll say.

I m not irresponsible,Blame my work or my attitude, I m not liking that work even a bit and so finding ways to escape it. Getting release from this project is also tough and getting new job is also toughso the only thing left is ESCAPE it.

Currently reading Brida by Paulo Coehlo, mmmmhhhhh... views on that.... Actually its a story of a girl who is in search of her soulmate. I dont know, but there are mant statements in that book that I usually used to say it to others. But still I'm not very much convinced as what he is trying to potrait. Overall a OKISH book.

2 Minutes TOI!!

Be adaptive to change - rule of survival.



May be "aam aadmi" does not feel the necessity of that but business does for sure. Just recently I saw this new link on times of india website- 2 minutes of TOI. 2 minutes of daily dose. It was like 2 minutes of maggi.



It is one of the survival startegy for sure but also, we could get a glimpse of "some good and impactful" news. One thing is good for sure that they have covered all sections and the webpage is also not boring but bit stylish to be liked by readers.



I m waiting for what competitors are planning for!!

Building Stamina!

The other day I
read in one of the health magazine 'Prevention' that to build stamina you should drink 'beetroot juice' now I m very fond of beetroot and eat it on regular basis,I thought of giving it a try. After spending half an hour in peeling,cutting and crushing,there was a glass full of red colour liquid,waiting to serve me and build my stamina. Ahhhh....
Suddenly I had positive vibes that my stamina would really build and I would be like one of the most powerful woman with lots of stamina(as if the liquid had some magical spell).
Now as soon I had my first sip.eeeehh!It was yucks.
I mean taste could differ so much just because its state is changed from solid to liquid. All my dreams and vibes have vanished and now I was thinking how to finish the remaining.
After lot of thinking I planned to finish it in one go.And belive me after that all day I was suffering from 'beetroot burps' :-l
Finally I concluded "state" is important of any food you decide to eat.

People Around You!

Don't you get fed up with citizens some times? Their bad behavior, inanity, egoism, insensitivity, rudeness ? Of course you do. You hate their road rage, line-up jumping, loud talking on their cell phones in elevators, on trains and busses, their inability to realize that they actually do have to pay at the grocery check-out counter. They wake up with a start when presented with the bill and start the fumble for handbag, purse, exact change, in pennies, which they never have. The guys and gals in packs who force you off the sidewalk, the drivers who cut you off and who are going too fast or too slow instead of, like us, the correct speed?

I could go on - actually I will. The smokers who blow smoke out of the side of their mouths, straight into your face as you walk by (well, they would have to be smokers to do that wouldn't they?). The people who drive on highway on two wheelers at a speed of 80/90 and still keep talking on mobile phone, the people who have a habit of repeating one thing for 10 times, the people who argue with you for no reason , the people simply howls , the neighbors who play loud music, are hard as rock and keep on jumping on your ceiling , the people who don't pick up after their dogs, the people who are cruel to animals, and especially the predators and criminals abounding, and so on. (Full disclosure: I lined up to pay at the grocery the other day, and realized that I had forgotten my wallet. Dumb!). (OK. It's not quite full disclosure, but it will have to suffice)…………….
So what we do?

Nothing… more then simply writing up this post!!

Newspaper and loop..

Thoughts flow the best at night on when I m in motion, I mean when I m driving my pleasure.
That was just a statement… Upcoming lines have no relation to it!!

Except on Sundays, I m not able to read newspaper fully. Reason my nephew G. Earlier it was T and TOI and now it is T and G. As soon as he sees people turning something called as paper, he shouts crawls and there he is snatching from you. Even if you try to do it sitting at some corner, his eagle’s eyes would catch you. But actually I should blame my time management for this, Ideally I could get time at night to read newspaper, then the blame goes to my 10:30 morning call , ideally for which I should start at around 9:45 but for that you need to get up at 7:00 but then for that you need to sleep at 11 at least, but for that you need to be at home at least by 7 then again for that you need to reach office by 10:30… see… that’s the loop!!! So actually I m not missing newspaper as I have a toy to play with.

I just completed Go kiss the world by Subroto Bagchi's. A must read book for every IT professional and budding entrepreneurs. The so called normal child , how he build up himself and how he build in Mindtree. At a early stage while working in Wipro , the way he was asked to give 120% , how he went wrong in making up decision to quit wipro and join L&T. Some how I was able to relate myself with him. He did mentioned that as you become a experienced professional, the choices are narrowed and you look for a similar kind of role and profile which was quite true.
He spoke about his onsite venture, how he was placed in a motel (where usually all WIPRO executives used to stay) but actually it was not amongst the recommended ones. And many more instances….

And also I read Imagining India by Nandan Nilekani, somehow I didn’t liked it . The volume and publicity given to the book just could get from buyers but appreciation is something which is still a long way for that book. I mean this is not expected form a person who has served Infosys, its good that he chose a different topic but somehow I feel he was just travelling in India and abroad and telling instances. He could have portrait about the youth power in a different way… . Everyone is aware that India has youth power but how we are using it is the question. I m highly disappointed by this one…

Entrepreneurship

Swine flue !!
This swine flue has given me a new business idea. Now what its is? And what’s the base for it?

Yesterday I read in pune times that there is a new rock band with name “Swine flu” . Atleast not for the talent but they are on front page for there name! What else do you need man? A bit of publicity…

So what’s the idea?

Swine flue moisturizer

Yes… After washing my hands for every hour my hand appeared as “drought hit area”. It was so dry that I thought even cactus could grow here.

So I thought of preparing a moisturizer which is a combination of hand sanitizer long lasting moisturizer

And what should be its name want something catchy…

Mmmmhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm….

What Else!!

Suddenly I realized I have changed a lot!!
Yes I have… I mean no dancing, no blogging, no bunking office,and moreover no flirting!!!
Seriously something has changed!!!

I realized how boring I have been… !!

Don’t want to do dissection or RCA ( root cause analysis) of this . as why what went wrong ? But thought of again rewinding!!! So I m back…

Atleast with blogging!!

And dancing…

And bunking…

And and and… flirting!!! I know the reason of that atelast… not even a single good looking guy around!!

You know when you join any office, first thing you would see is people around you… if they are soothing …good… humourous… somehow you ll like to come again to them. But then if you don’t find even a single motivator!!! Bad it is…. You don’t feel like coming back and that s THE reason I don’t like my “new office”… :-(

Anyways, I’m just back from my vacation went to Madurai and Ramaeshwaram . I m not that religious to visit theerths(holy places) but wanted my parents to do that. But still loved the place. Meenakshi temple is so very beautiful!! And ramaeshwaram temple, its so huge and ancient. Truly loved it. And how could I forget palliyar patti. Thanks cm-chap for being our tour-guide. But the trip was amazing!

Hope to be regular now… well I should be!! That’s what time management is all about!!
